The Quest Continues ...

A "quiet night in" last night - finally got round to watching "The Damned United" (thanks to Gaz for the loan of same !) - wildly innacurate at times, but still an enjoyable watch. Followed this with a BBC4 binge (Neil Young and James Taylor - two excellent tunesmiths !)

Today ... into darkest Yorkshire today for a West Riding County Amateur Football League game between Ardsley Celtic and champions Bay Athletic - they're even presenting the trophy today as well !!Could well be a bit of a Mossley connection as well this afternoon, as there are some ex-Lilywhites in the Bay Athletic squad (Paul Quinn, Kitson Gayle and Brighton Mugadza - and I wonder if Paul's Dad, Gerry - ex-Mossley Manager - will be in attendance ?) - weather looks promising for a gentle walk, train, wait, train, bus, walk option (it's the other side of Wakefield by the way) - early KO might mean early pictures - you never know ....

If it puts money in Stalybridge Celtic's pocket - why not ?? When FCUM first began they were offered a groundshare @ Droylsden - they went for Bury instead .. They'll be needing extra staff at the Buffet Bar as well if it comes off as well !!
